Patent number: 9649226Abstract: The devices, kits and methods described may be used for wound healing, including the treatment, amelioration, or prevention of scars and/or keloids by applying and/or maintaining a pre-determined strain in an elastic skin treatment device that is then affixed to the skin surface using skin adhesives to transfer a generally planar force from the bandage to the skin surface. Applicators are used to apply and/or maintain the strains, and some of the applicators are further configured to provide at least some mechanical advantage to the user when exerting loads onto the skin treatment device.Type: GrantFiled: January 17, 2014Date of Patent: May 16, 2017Assignee: Neodyne Biosciences, Inc.Inventors: John A. Zepeda, Jasper Jackson, William R. Beasley, Darren G. Doud, Brett A. Follmer
